Vienna (Austria), September 5th 2014:

This day has been eagerly anticipated by the real-time strategy
community: after a long time in development, the hugely successful
Kickstarter project Planetary Annihilation has finally been
released. The spiritual successor to Total Annihilation and Supreme
Commander provides real-time strategy on an unprecedented scale. Up
to ten players can engage in enormous battles on futuristic
battlefields simultaneously: Planetary Annihilation knows no unit
limits.

The amount of war material is far away from being humble, too:
severalmechs, armoured vehicles with a range of weaponry, war
planes and bombers, scouts, heavy stationary artillery, portable
rocket launchers, orbital weapons and – a particularly
drastic method of combating the enemy – thrusters that can be
mounted on planets and asteroids, transforming them into true
planet annihilators.

For single player enthusiasts, Planetary Annihilation also
offers many hours of entertainment with its randomised campaign
mode Galactic War: this twist on the classic single-player campaign
confronts players with randomly generated content across a dynamic
galaxy, making every playthrough different, prioritising long-term
motivation.

Planetary Annihilation is also mod-friendly – players can
create their own units, their own planets and their own rules, and
share them with the community, adding lots of free content to the
basic game.

Planetary Annihilation is available
in stores as a DRM-free edition on September 5th.
The RRP for the Standard Edition is $29.99/€29.99/GBP24.99.
The limited
Collector’s Edition will then follow on
September 23rd, containing the game Planetary Annihilation and the
following additional content:

A Logitech G300 Wired Gaming Mouse.

Codes for additional digital content: the Calyx Commander and
the Alpha Commander. Both commanders are available in single and
multiplayer matches and show your opponents that you are a true
Planetary Annihilation fan.

The fascinating orchestral soundtrack to download in MP3
format.

A digital wallpaper.

A hardback art book of the game.

The Collector’s Edition will be offered at the
recommended retail price of $59.99/€59.99/GBP54.99 and can be
purchased from selected retailers.
